The internal stone staircase leads off the ground floor
salon to a first floor landing, with views into the
courtyard and access to the upper salon, a bathroom
and the main bedroom suite.
The upper salon measures 17.0 x 4.3 metres, and provides
access to the balcony via French windows. The balcony
has far-reaching views over the garden and surrounding
countryside and has a table and chairs for sitting with
a drink. There is a large open traditional stone fireplace
at one end of the room, and a staircase at the other
end leading up to a minstrel's gallery and then on up
to the
|
 |
attic room. The salon is furnished with plenty of
sofas, chairs and tables, and the wooden floor is part
covered with two large Persian rugs.
In winter, the fire creates a focal point for gathering
around in the evenings.
The minstrel's gallery provides an additional seating
area. The attic room can be used either as a TV/children's
playroom, or as an extra bedroom.
The bathroom to which access is gained from the landing
at the top of the stairs has a walk-in shower, bath,
sink and loo.
The main bedroom measures 6.3 x 5.1 metres and has
views to the west of the house and also into the courtyard
via French windows and balcony. There is a king-sized
double bed, and lots of wardrobe space and other bedroom
furniture. An open doorway leads from the bedroom to
the large en-suite bathroom, which measures 4.3 x 5.1
metres and has a walk-in shower, feature bath, sink
and loo.
A corridor leading off the salon at the other side
of the house leads to two further double bedrooms, measuring
4.6 x 3.1 metres and 6.0 x 4.8 metres respectively,
and another bathroom. Both bedrooms have double beds
(king-size in the larger room), and windows opening
onto the courtyard, with the larger of the two also
having views to the east of the house. The bathroom
has a bath, sink and loo.
The first floor of the house is laid with wooden flooring,
and the attic room is carpeted.
The house is furnished with a mixture of good quality
antique and modern furniture and fittings, and has extensive
storage space in the bedrooms and elsewhere. The bedroom,
bathroom and kitchen equipment and fittings are all
of a high standard, providing a considerable degree
of comfort and convenience.
